This reverts commit 268f84a827534c4e4c2540a4e29daa73359fc0a5.

The reverted commit is based on implementation of wiphy locking that isn't
planned to redo on a stable kernel, so revert it to avoid warning:

The patch being reverted was also backported to 5.15 and 6.1 stables where
it's causing the same splats.

I've sent the reverts for those branches, too:
- 5.15 https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20240926131552.34898-1-pchelkin@ispras.ru/
- 6.1  https://lore.kernel.org/stable/20240926131437.34326-1-pchelkin@ispras.ru/
